Hello Willem,

Quote:
I see that Erik also has a Sikin with gold inlay and a buffalo horn hilt showing remains of a golden crown. Same as Kai's rencong and Fernando's Sikin.
Yup, I noticed that, too.

I think we're getting a convincing pattern here. (4 examples and counting...)

Ps. does anyone have an Aceh sewar in their collection ?
With gold/suassa decoration?

I think that Fig. 70B in Jean Greffioz's keris book shows an interesting rencong/sewar intermediate.

Regards,
Kai
